Rowing Illustrated

Just heard that Raymond Sims has passed away. Ray was a long time coach at Nottingham Country Rowing Association where he worked the great lightweight crews of the 80's and 90's. He coach both Great Britain and Irish Lightweight teams to World championship medals and was probably best known as a boa...

Thanks for the heads up. Its always interesting to hear US news. Keep it coming, but one small request. Can you post the athletes surnames too please.

The NZ four is their top mens sweep boat. The pair is the second boat, but were very close to Macdonald/Murray at the recent North Island Champs and word is they are improving steadily.

Rowing: Stewie was pointing out what many well travelled people who are familiar with the US and many other countries around the world have come to believe; that the US has declined in so many ways both socially and culturally. I myself have visited over 50 countries and spent a considerable amount ...

I'd urge everyone involved in the sport to buy a copy of Chris Dodds book. There is a lesson in it for everyone as to what this sport should really be about. Thor was never one for ego driven coaching or for patriotism towards one's country at the expense of others. He shared his knowledge willingly...

A true gentleman who influenced so many people who in turn went on to influence so many others in our sport. We are truely less for his passing.

Karsten graced us with her presence long before the current political situation. Her record is second to none. I can’t think of anyone more deserving.

Hamish Bond has already won the Thomas Keller medal back in 2018. Dont think you can win it twice.

Cancels out the 40m sideways movement my cox manages to mess up by every race.

I think they are saying Chechia, which I assume is the Czech for Czech Republic.
I hope they are not saying Chechnya!

In terms of being a truly International sport, the Dennis Oswald(President) and Thor Nilsen(Development) years 1985 - 2015 were the most important years. Membership in FISA went from 65 nations to 150 member Federations. While a lot of these are small, they are growing steadily bringing our sport to...

"How digesting is that???? Works rowing should have know better than awarding the games to these bastards" Drhippo, if you are going to post, it's worth knowing that people will take you a little more seriously if you take the time to check your grammar and spelling before clicking submit.

Cut from the same cloth methinks. Allegedly this school also was quite keen on offering "scholarships" to students from other schools as well as enticing students who, although they were still underage to row, had actually finished High School and were persuaded to come back to row for the...
